Michael McNulty's Annus Horribilis is a comedy of errors which traces Michael, the narrator and protagonist, through a roller-coaster twelve months of his life. In the beginning, Michael seemingly has everything. A great job in the City of London, amazing house and beautiful Eastern European girlfriend. But he has taken his eye off the ball and is becoming increasingly complacent. He has something nagging him at the back of his mind that he can't quite put his finger on. A longing for something.
Over twenty-four hours, Michael's life is turned upside down. Through his own incompetence, he loses everything he has worked so hard to achieve and takes a large investment firm with him.
In amongst the chaos, Michael realises that the insatiable itch is his need to escape from the rat race and return home. He seeks refuge at home with his parents, a world away from the City, but a place he has neglected for some time.
Unfortunately for Michael, this is just the beginning of his woes. As he looks to rekindle long forgotten friendships, he ends up dragging everyone in to his web of turmoil. Not least his heartbroken and wronged ex-girlfriend, Poppy. Whilst predominately a comedy, the enduring tale of the novel is Michael growing to realise that there are more important things in life than money and material gains. What he has been missing all these years is Poppy and he is still deeply in love with her. It takes twelve months and numerous hilarious mistakes for Michael to fully and finally realise this.
Take a perverse pleasure in Michael's misfortune as he crosses the North Sea astride a casket, is repeatedly kidnapped by the mafia and ruins Christmas for the whole of Scunthorpe amongst numerous bizarre and absurd scrapes he finds himself involved in during his Annus Horribilis.
